[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Read up on the San Francisco school lottery system. The DC system is being based on a similar lottery premise.[/quote] Here is a summary of the SF system: http://blog.pacunion.com/san-francisco-public-school-lottery/ Sounds like people who rank a school highly are more likely to get in. From the article, it notes the lottery is held in several rounds: "The first round of school assignments go out in March, but families still have several other rounds, as well as wait lists, if they’re willing to hold out for a different school."[/quote] Ok, I'm getting confused now. I'd. DC eliminating IB preference?[/quote] I don't think so. You still can go to your IB school for k and above as a matter of right. I think it is more the "swap" part of the lottery to maximize too choices: http://blog.sfishome.com/san-francisco/san-francisco-public-school-lottery-explained/[/quote]
